About

Media around the world have taken to calling me “The World’s Most Romantic Man”, “America’s Romance Expert”, “Mr. Romance”, “The Martha Stewart of Romance” and other interesting monikers (here are some media quotes) I don’t necessarily agree with the titles, but I do aim to be the world’s most loving husband.

I grew up in a family with six sisters. In my lifetime I have seen them abused by the various men in their lives. Even my mother has the scars from two unsuccessful marriages.

When I was a teenager, my mother shared some insight into all of their failed relationships. She explained that they really weren’t expecting to be treated as queens, but they did desire two critical things from the men in their lives: to be told frequently that they are loved and to be shown often that they are special.

It was at that point I decided I would be the sort of husband my mom and sisters had dreamed of but never had.

When I was dating my wife-to-be I remember those two points my mother shared with me years earlier. I admit that I struggled trying to be able to express my love verbally and in action. For most men, it isn’t natural for us be romantics. But then again, it isn’t natural for us to be millionaires or sports superstars. It does take effort, practice and diligence. But the rewards are there.

Nearly twenty years ago I began a mission to help men and women infuse more love and romance into their relationships – not just on special holidays, but making every day a great day for romance. What began as a 8-page printed newsletter “The RoMANtic” has evolved into a small media empire of 18 books, this website and email newsletters reaching 300,000+. I’ve done numerous workshops and seminars and have been featured on over 500 TV and radio programs including Oprah and the iconic game show “To Tell the Truth”. I was even a celebrity spokesperson alongside Fabio for I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter.

Twenty five years into my marriage it is more blissful than I could ever hope for. I really, truly, deeply love my wife and let her know it every day by what I say and what I do. Our friends and family members want to know our secrets.

It is my goal to share as many as possible in my books and on my website. — Michael Webb
